MUSC Health Extends Partnership with Omnicell to Enhance Safety and Efficiency in Medication Management
Automation of processes supports more cost-effective sterile
compounding and improved workflows in patient care areas
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Omnicell, Inc. (NASDAQ: OMCL) today announced that MUSC Health has
chosen the Company’s industry-leading medication management platform to
support their sterile compounding operations in Central Pharmacy, as
well as expanding their footprint for automated dispensing cabinets in
patient care areas.
MUSC Health will be implementing Omnicell’s Robotic
IV Insourcing SolutionTM (RIIS) to bring
sterile compounding in-house as part of the health system’s Central
Pharmacy operations. This unique program combines advanced robotic
technology, data intelligence, and expertly trained pharmacy technician
staff into a comprehensive, turnkey package that provides a streamlined
path for hospitals to insource their sterile compounding to enhance
patient safety while reducing overall cost and reliance on outsourcers.
In patient care areas within MUSC Health’s new children’s and women’s
facility, Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital and Pearl Tourville Women’s
Pavilion, the health system will be upgrading to Omnicell’s XT
Series Automated Dispensing Cabinets to help improve workflow
efficiency for both nursing and pharmacy, while helping to increase
medication accountability and patient safety.
“We are continually looking for opportunities to improve processes that
support delivery of the best care for our patients,” said Heather
Easterling, PharmD, MBA, Administrator of Pharmacy Services for MUSC
Health. “Omnicell’s technologies, including novel programs like RIIS,
give us the tools and resources we need to create safer, more efficient
medication management across our health system.”
Through RIIS, MUSC Health will also have access to novel data services,
including REINVENTTM,
a first-of-a-kind global clinical registry that utilizes IV preparation
data from sites around the world to help users track performance,
identify best practices and gather insights to maximize the value of IV
automation technology. Omnicell’s Formulary
Tool Kit will provide the health system access to cGMP stability
studies to extend beyond use dates using a proven, systematic,
repeatable process.
These types of rich data insights are part of Omnicell’s larger vision
for Autonomous Pharmacy, a roadmap designed to develop a zero error,
fully automated medication management infrastructure, leveraging
automation, data intelligence, and expert services to empower
pharmacists, nurses, clinicians, and pharmacy staff to focus on patient
and clinician satisfaction.
“At Omnicell, we are committed to helping our customers drive improved
outcomes. Our advanced technology is a key piece of that equation, but
equally important are the data insights and expert resources we provide
to help enhance efficiency and support patient safety,” said Scott
Seidelmann, executive vice president and chief commercial officer at

Indivior
Indivior Provides Update on Aelis Farma’s Clinical Phase 2B Study Results with AEF0117 in Participants with Cannabis Use Disorder
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 (AS IT FORMS PART OF DOMESTIC LAW IN THE UK BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018).
- Primary and Secondary End Points of the Study were Not Met
- Indivior Does Not Currently Expect to Exercise AEF0117 Option
SLOUGH, United Kingdom and RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Indivior PLC (Nasdaq/LSE: INDV) is today providing an update following Aelis Farma’s announcement of the results from its clinical Phase 2B trial with AEF01171, evaluating the efficacy and safety in treatment-seeking participants with moderate to severe Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD). The purpose of this trial was twofold: (1) to show that AEF0117 (0.1, 0.3, 1 mg once a day for 12 weeks) lowers cannabis use and (2) to determine the endpoints and optimal dosage of AEF0117 for use in future studies. In this phase 2B study, patients were treatment-seeking participants, 84% of whom had severe CUD.
The results of the study demonstrated that the primary endpoint, the proportion of participants who reduced their cannabis use to ≤1 day per week, as well as secondary endpoints measuring the proportion of participants reaching either complete abstinence or who used ≤2 day per week, were not met. Although these results are disappointing, they indicate that significant work remains to be done to understand subpopulations of patients with CUD, specifically those with severe CUD.
This clinical Phase 2B study is part of the strategic collaboration between Aelis Farma and Indivior, which includes an exclusive option for Indivior to license the global rights to AEF0117. Given the lack of separation from placebo on primary and secondary endpoints and before seeing further additional favorable clinical data, Indivior does not currently expect to exercise its option.
